Harper sighed to herself as she sat on the edge of the bed as she looked to Sofia who was sleeping. She looked to her and smiled as she looked to tom as he walked into the room and smiled "are you okay" he asked as she looked to him and sighed "I don't know, how am I meant to go to work and leave her. I don't know if I can do it" she said as he walked over to her and smiled as he sat next to her. He wrapped an arm around her and pulled her into a hug and smiled "it's okay, I know that your scared but she will only be down the hall from us. She will be in the crèche and she will be okay" he said as she looked to him and smiled. She felt anxious. She looked to him and smiled. Harper knew that she and tom were still living together for Sofia's sake but Harper knew that she still had feelings for him.

Harper looked to tom and smiled. She knew that he was right and that she needed to work and even though Sofia has been through a lot in a few months and that she couldn't wrap her up in Cotten wool forever. Harper looked to Tom and smiled, she knew that he was right and that she needed to return to work. Harper stood up and started to get dressed. Tom sat with Sofia as he looked to Harper,  he knew that he had seen her naked a thousand terms but he couldn't help but feel more turned on knowing that they weren't together and that he wanted her more. She turned to face him and smiled as he grabbed a hand and they held a look for a moment "I miss you" he said as she looked to him and smiled.

Later that day, Harper got to school and smiled as she saw Madison . Madison looked to her and smiled "are you okay" Madison asked as she sighed "I don't know, my head is a mess" she said as Madison smiled "I still love tom, and it's getting harder and harder to be there and live with him and act as if we're all okay" she said as Madison looked to her and smiled "your still in love with him, then tell him. You and tom are great together. He made a mistake which resulted in you going into labour. She had heart surgery and he was still there. It's okay to give him another chance, he's worth it isn't he?" Madison asked Harper as she looked to her and smiled.

Later that day, Harper walked into toms classroom. He looked to her and smiled "are you okay" he asked as she nodded. She walked over to him and placed a hand on his cheek and smiled "I miss you, I miss us. Can we try again" she asked as he looked to her and smiled "of course" he said as he pulled her close and kissed her. But would it all work out?
